A Plain Guide to Generic ED Tablets

Tadalafil and sildenafil are the two most common treatments for erectile dysfunction. Both have a long track record, and both are sold as cheaper generics. The question that matters is usually not which one is "better", but which one fits your routine.

Generic sildenafil is normally taken about an hour before sex and works for four to five hours. A large meal can delay the effect. Tadalafil, on the other hand, can work for up to 36 hours, and food makes little difference. Some men also take a low daily dose of tadalafil so they never need to time a tablet.

For a side-by-side look, this practical guide walks through timing, food and side effects.

Safety first: never take either medicine with nitrate heart medicines or with "poppers". Let your doctor know about any generic tadalafil blood pressure tablets. The usual side effects are headache, flushing, a blocked nose and indigestion. Seek medical help straight away for an erection lasting more than four hours or sudden changes in vision.

Strength matters too. The licensed doses are 25, 50 or 100 mg for sildenafil and 2.5 to 20 mg for tadalafil. Higher-strength tablets do not reliably work better, but they do raise the risk of side effects. Stick to the dose on your prescription.

When you buy medicine online, make sure the strength matches your prescription and keep the leaflet. A valid prescription is required for every order of a prescription medicine. You can read more here.
